SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

Agreed. Like June Jones, but saw this past weeks game and they had no heart. If the Bobcats bring energy, SMU will collapse.Cap'n Cat wrote:Bobcats @ SMU, by far.

Not to mention they usually have to pay mid-major FBSers a bit more money for the same thing. Finances will win out in the end.JayJ79 wrote:funny how it goes from "not playing FCS teams to improve strength of schedule for playoff consideration" to avoiding FCS games because they are too challenging.Cujo wrote:I hate to be the Debbie Downer....but does anyone else realize the impact all of these FCS wins will have? Without a "guaranteed win" BCS conferences will stop scheduling FCS teams to avoid being embarrassed and there goes the big income NEEDED by a lot of these schools just to stay afloat every year.

Even SIU, who can't beat any other CAA team, could beat them.

Went with a homer pick only because we are on a 2 year Pac 12 winning streak which won't make it to 3 straight.

SD is probably right here, though I'm still making the homer call.SDHornet wrote:Went with a homer pick only because we are on a 2 year Pac 12 winning streak which won't make it to 3 straight.
If we DO pull it off, though...do we effectively kill the money game tree?
